"Taryn, just let me do this I’m a little mad that you didn’t tell me earlier"

I sighed "I didn’t tell you because you need to stay focused while you’re working Besides, I figured you had enough on your plate dealing with Suzanne I could just tell in your voice when you called earlier that she was giving you a hard time"
